Christie said walking out safely with her dementia patient and his dog was a great relief, but the 24 hours were quite a journey.

A caretaker is sharing her story after being trapped in storm-stricken Santa Cruz Mountains with her dementia patient, with no power and service.Some residents in Boulder Creek were trapped after large trees blocked access to roads, including a caretaker and her dementia patient.

On Wednesday morning, Veronica Christie captured cellphone video of when she and her dementia patient were able to walk out of Boulder Creek safely. Downed trees and power lines on Riverdale Boulevard made it nearly impossable to get through by vehicles. Utility and emergency crews had allowed residents to walk in or out for a short window of time."I'm tired. I'm kind of coming down off of everything that happened. And doing that thing in your mind like, did that just really happened to me?" Christie said.

On Tuesday, Christie got to her patients home. Because he has dementia, she tries to time it out when his wife leaves. Her timing was impeccable. Within half an hour of getting there, she heard trees started to fall and the power shut off. "So I said okay, let's get in the car let's get out, I grab the dog because I'm worried we won't be able to get back in," Christie said.
